McCain Grades "D" on Veteran's Issues

[Indiana95]

So, it appears that the Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America, a non-profit, non-partisan group thinks Obama has done better than McCain on veteran's issues....hmmmmmm...Say it ain't so. He's supposed to be the defender of all veterans. NOT!

Obama - B (Not great, but good)

McCain - D (Ouch :doh:)

OK guys. Those of you who admire his service to our country and his support for the military, are you going to simply dismiss this grade (from military men and women)?!

I guess the Dems chose the wrong 'guy' !!!

Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-N.Y.), a former candidate for president, scored an “A.”

I'm sure that being a serviceman, and having been through MILITARY LIFE, McCain will make sure to take good care of his troops.

"My fellow prisoner.....umm, I mean American".......How can YOU say that, when actual veteran's are saying otherwise. Read the article.....they feel Obama has been a better supporter than your so called military hero McCain.

And Hillary was the BEST supporter !! LOL !! The criteria is skewed, and I'll take a guy that's been in the foxhole before !! :ohno:

It's not "That guy " !! LOL !!!

Just sayin' ...................

i wouldn't be so sure.

seems like the only thing you ever have to say about mccain is that he's a veteran. they should have had you give a speech at the GOP convention.

The criteria is skewed

if the results went the other way, you'd be praising those people for their wonderful criteria.

I wonder if the "trophy" McCain got chills throughout her body when her husband voted against funding the troops, and her own son!
Thats disgusting, but not as disgusting as whining about Obama voting against a funding bill due to the lack of a timeline, but not telling the people that your own hubby did it too!

John McAngry, for the troops! Lol
